    DEAN MARKLEY USA UNVEILS NEW PURE NICKEL HELIX

    STRINGS FOR GUITAR

     

    GLENDALE, AZ – Dean Markley USA introduces the addition of new pure nickel guitar

    strings to the Helix line. Helix strings are made with a new patented hyper-elliptical

    winding technique, creating a tighter wrap and more mass, which seals the strings

    without the need for coating. By using pure nickel, the strings will offer a warmer,

    clearer tone all while extending the life of the string.

     

    Pure nickel strings have long been sought after by guitarists in pursuit of the ultimate

    tone. But manufacturers have stopped manufacturing or limit their production due to

    the high cost. The Dean Markley team takes a different approach and firmly believes

    in giving the musician every tool they need to achieve their goals. Pure nickel strings

    immediately start out with a warm tone and keep their tone much longer than strings

    using other materials. Besides being easier on the frets and gentler to the touch,

    pure nickel creates less distortion allowing tone aficionados to clearly distinguish

    notes within chords and high speed run-throughs of scales and arpeggios.

     

    It took over a year of many trials to find just the precise elliptical shape for the

    winding wire. This shape then had to be paired with the correct winding process. The

    hyper-elliptical winding process results in an increased number of wraps along the

    length of the string. This increases the mass of the string, without changing its

    diameter or material. More mass makes a fuller tone; more windings give a smoother

    feel as well as a brighter, more resonant tone. Additional benefits of the

    hyper-elliptical windings is a more relaxed feel, less squeak and sliding noise and the

    strings last much longer.

     

    MSRP: $18.99 USD
